Last trip out to Steamboat the average temp the week we were there was -5 and we got something like 36" of snow. We rented a Ford fusion with all seasons. No crashes.
This was taken in the hotel parking lot in Steamboat about a year ago.

Had my old TDi in 2+ feet of snow going up over Rabbit Ears Pass leaving steamboat FWD/ chains, couldnt really open the doors but it made it. Thank god it did because they shut the pass down for the weekend just after I left
